You'd want to have it as a tablet because you don't want to swallow that stuff.

But when it's in the stomach, it produces this mucus layer.

You don't need to go to slippery elm.

There is a product here in this country called Gaviscon, which is essentially seaweed gum.

I don't have shares in it, by the way, but it's seaweed gum with some minerals in there.

And they advertise it when you see the television ads as the raft.

So what they're doing is you're putting a layer of mucus.

on top of your food.

So you have it after you've had your last mouthful.

And then as the food pushes up back into the gullet, you've got this nice mucus coating, a raft, to stop it.

That carbohydrate, it's what it is, gets digested within a couple of hours.

End of.

No problem.

It's not even a medicine.

It's just a physical barrier.

So you could have Gavisconia, you could have Suprioma, you could have Aloe Vera.

There's a number of other mucusy type plants that people use.

And that can, without any other complication at all, be one step.

And I use it regularly when I'm weaning people off omeprazole and I will use the raft principle to help prevent some of the harm you get with reflux.

Just a simple example.
